Actually Tom, I think my money has to go to the sigma chi website. www.sigmachi.org. Very professional, almost like a news site. I would like to see more content and less pretty at lambdachi.org. Just like a news site, tools, happenings, and maybe a daily chapter spotlight. IHQ is ALWAYS beating it into our heads about intrafraternalism and they think the answer is "GO to GA, Leadership Seminar, and Regional Leadership" And thats it. Dont THEY feel THEY have some culpability in all of this? Maybe the website would be a great place to start. Could really serve to connect the zetas. Of course, withthe exception of Marty Smith, most GHZ members were PLEDGES. People who havent been collegate in about 40 years, and have no concept of what it means to be collegate today. Maybe THATS why they cant get ZETAS to respect risk mgmt issues, or recruit like they should. Eventually they are gonna have to understand that maybe being hostile to the Zetas isnt the best long term solution. Case in point: IHQ refuses to give out its 800#. They want to save overhead. I can respect that. Maybe shouldnt it be about customer service? Heres an Idea: Lets get that Mailroom organized and get AM pins sent out in a timely manner. Hell how about not having to wait a YEAR for membership certificates? (not even going to mention how I had to DRIVE to INDY to get mine. <was actually passing though, but had waited 8 months> so I stopped by founders road to pick it up.) That'd be a start and the 800 # would be a kind gesture. Would show that the GF is about meeting the Zetas needs. Dont think it would put the GF into recievership. If it would, how about cutting half of that middle management it supports. My rant is done.


PS: I think the toll-fee number is 1-888-873-9617. I turned our former SAC rep upside down and shook it outta him. Write it down and USE IT. Hell, were paying the bill anyway.
